Published Date :

Nicolas Cage’s Perks for Dead by Daylight have been revealed and are here with the PTB version 7.1.0 of the game. Our beloved actor definitely has some interesting abilities that can help you survive or get you killed. And what’s even better than these perks is how he got himself into the world of Entity.

As per the official Trailer, Nic Cage’s “last performance attracted a force of great cosmic evil”. This brought him to the Realms, but let’s not focus on how he got here. If you plan on escaping then knowing how his perks is a must.

All Nicolas Cage Perks in Dead By Daylight

how Nicolas Cage Perks work in DBD explained

All of these perks are available to players that have access to the Public Test Beta of the game. Nic Cage will have 3 new perks in DBD and here is what they do:

  • Dramaturgy: Activates while you are healthy. While running, press the Active Ability Button 2 to run with knees high for 0.5 seconds and then gain 25% Haste for 2 seconds, followed by an unknown effect (one of the following).
      • Exposed for 12 seconds.
      • Gain 25% Haste for 2 seconds.
      • Scream, but nothing happens.
      • Gain a random rare item in hand with random add-ons and drop any held item.
    • The same effect cannot happen twice in a row. Causes exhaustion for 60/50/40 seconds. Can’t be used while exhausted.
  • Scene Partner: Activates when you are in the Killer’s Terror Radius. Whenever you look at the Killer, scream, then see the Killer’s aura for 3/4/5 seconds. There is a chance you will scream again, if you do, you will see the Killer’s aura for an additional 2 seconds. Scene Partner then goes on cool-down for 60 seconds.
  • Plot Twist: Activates when you are injured. Press the Active Ability Button 2 while crouched and motionless to silently enter the dying state. When using Plot Twist to enter the dying state, you leave no blood pools, make no noise, and you can fully recover from the dying state. When you recover by yourself using Plot Twist, you are fully healed instantly and you gain 50% Haste for 2/3/4 seconds. This perk deactivates if you recover by yourself by any means. The perk re-activates when the exit gates are powered.

You can check out the game’s official Patch Notes if you want to know anything else about PTB. Do remember that since these perks aren’t available in the live version of the game, the game might change them when releasing him for everyone. The main reason to keep it in public beta is for players to test it out and give feedback if some ability is too powerful or too weak. And accordingly, the developers can decide how to change these perks.

Since these perks look good so far hopefully Dead By Daylight doesn’t change them during Nicolas Cage’s release. If you don’t want to wait and are looking to try them out for yourself then you should join Public Test Beta for the game. And for more help with this game be sure to check out our DBD section.
